Motor City Sonics Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 If they can get Meadows & Keith going..................I don't care much about Rogers' hitting (since he's so good defensively). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with Javy? That play he made yesterday, backing up and throwing off his back foot was very special. And heads up baserunning. Gotta admit, the guy hustles!

Now need to figure out how many of the other six spots are serviceable. Canha is starting to win me over..😆 I really like him hitting 3rd much better though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us thought we got Meadows cheap. Paredes did change his approach though, at least, according to Craig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalTiger Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I never liked the Paredes deal. And I blame Hinch for never playing him enough to find out. It leaves me wondering about his ability to judge talent. The dude always showed a keen sense of the strike zone, fielded competently and just looking at him showed power was there. Greene got hurt and Al was under pressure to show progress so he gambled. He gave up a high draft pick also and Meadows was already declining badly in the field and somewhat at the plate while his salary was rising. Typical Tampa move.

I think part of the playing time issue for Paredes was that he was stuck behind Candelario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't guarantee anything going forward, but if history can be a guide, he's about to become a much better pitcher. This post was clutch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Saturday night we sat on the third base side and on the Sunday game we sat behind the first base dugouts. Wanted to get the two perspectives of the park. I’’m 6’3” and the seats were not an issue for me. Glad we went when we did. You were wither 5'2" then or the seats have shrunk over time?

Tenacious D Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 The Paredes trade was awesome, until it wasn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
